Sponsor Yaritssa's Reading Goal!

Donation protected
I  am  Mr.Roberts, 6th  grade  teacher  at  KIPP  SharpstownPrep. I am helping my  students  set  and  achieve  big  goals. Here  is Yaritssa  to  tell  you  more:  


Hello! I am one of the hardest-working students in Houston. I  want  to go  to  UT  and  study  education.  I  love reading funny books and fiction. I have  one  sibling. As  a  6th  grader at  KIPP Sharpstown  College  Prep, I go to school  for about three  extra hours every day and  do  a lot of homework every  night  so  that  I  can  get  one step  closer  to  my dream   of  going  to  college. 

It's not easy, which is why we call it "Climbing the Mountain to College." To practice the persistence that I'm learning in school, I want to climb a real mountain--but not just any mountain...the highest mountain in Texas: Guadalupe Peak. It's a tough eight-hour climb to the top of the 8,750 foot summit and back. It will take every ounce of strength and grit I have, and it will also take your help!

You can help me by sponsoring my reading goal. Here's how it works. You donate toward my trip to Guadalupe Peak, and I will read for 40 hours in our March Read-a-Thon and send you a thank you note that explains what I read. 

Thank you very much for your support. I wouldn't be able to do it without you!

Your donation will not go directly to the student. It will  be deposited through WePay into the school's account, which will be used to pay for the trip to Guadalupe Peak and the costs of camping, equipment, etc.
